      Look at my recent 'TextureRandomizer' tool that's specifically designed to be used on a selection of textured faces...

      Let's say you want to move all textures 1 unit to the 'right' [UX] you simply leave all settings at the 'default' which changes nothing, except for the UXmax and UXmin values which you set both to be 1 unit, because the range is now constrained you get all textures jumping rightwards 1 unit.

      To apply any 'fixed' transformation to any aspect of the textures of selected faces you just set the max and min values to be the same [BUT not 0 for position/rotation or 1 for scaling etc].
      If the max/min values have any range at all then the results are randomized between them - so using UXmax=1 and UXmin=0 will give rightwards offsets anywhere between 0 and 1 unit, averaging 0.5 units...

        By chance, I am finishing a new Plugin, called ThruPaint, that manages transformation of textures.

        My initial intention was to extend the native SU Paint tool to paint across the boundary of components and groups. However, I quickly bumped into the problem of texture continuity and added a few functionalities about texture painting.

        This is not finished yet, but here is a short snapshot

              Fredo! πŸ‘ πŸ‘ If that works as well across curved / sculpted meshes then this will be a breakthrough plugin!

                It works with curved surfaces. There are several modes of texturing depending on what you want to do.

                PS: Sorry for the small videos. I can't do better with the limit of 2 Mo. I'll try to make one on YouTube whenever I can.

                    WOW!!.... That is amazing! Do the textures get broken up if you export them? Even if they do this still looks great!

                        What kind of geometry does it work on? Tri & quads?

                                The Mesh mode works on pseudo-quads, either true quads or quads made out of 2 triangles. The Mesh simply allows to calculate the U and V directions for texture application.

                                  Am I correct in assuming this plugin brings solid projection to SU? 😲
